We know from experience. You can smell it the minute you walk into a room or open a closet where the smell is coming from. The odor from a dead, decomposing mouse or other small rodent is enough to drive you out of the house. Well, before you take a hammer to the wall or search through the vents, there is an easier solution to reducing and even eliminating the pungent odor from a dead mouse behind the wall or in a vent. This photo might be cute but there isn’t anything funny about dealing with dead mouse odors. It’s that season. Dead mice and rats hidden behind walls, cabinets, vents and closets are among our top odor inquiries. The good news is that we have helped many readers just like you. There is a way to SAFELY eliminate the odor with natures best odor absorbing material – activated charcoal. No chemicals or irritating fragrances that just mask the odor. Our popular FRIDGE IT Cube activated charcoal odor absorber is an extremely effective solution for tackling the strong odor from a dead mouse.

Our customers often ask – “But, I thought that FRIDGE IT was for the refrigerator?” Yes, that’s most certainly true. However, the special ventilated activated charcoal

FRIDGE IT Cube

filter that we use for FRIDGE IT is amazing in effectively absorbing a broad range of odors and has the absorption capabilities to handle even the toughest of odors including dead mouse smells. FRIDGE IT contains a powerful filter that absorbs and neutralizes odors as they pass through the millions of micro-pockets and pores in the activated charcoal. The amazing property of activated charcoal is the enormous microscopic surface area that odors (gases) actually “adsorb” to, adhering to the surface of the activated charcoal. Placing a few of these FRIDGE IT filters in the area that you feel the dead mouse is likely located will help tremendously in absorbing the smell that is lingering in the air. For best results, place near the baseboards and in the general area near the wall. Depending upon the size of the room and difficulty of the odor, we typically recommend 3 – 6 odor absorbing filters placed nearby. They last up to 6 months and can be used elsewhere once the odor is gone.

If you have problems with mice in the house, we recommend first trying to trap the critters in the open with a mouse trap or other device so that it doesn’t just end of eating poison bate and then die behind the wall. Despite best efforts to trap them, the reality is they often end of simply dead behind a wall and the smell is pretty darn bad. So, again, before you take a hammer to the wall, discover the amazing power of activated charcoal for absorbing odors.
